RENEWAL OF THE CHURCH OF ST. JAN KŘTITEL AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE SURROUNDINGS - HAJNICE
2021
The basic idea lies in the multipurpose use of the interior and exterior of the church. The building modifications provide places in the whole area for publicly accessible cultural and social events: concerts, singing and theater performances, exhibitions, lectures, workshops, discussions, secular and church ceremonies. The basic slogans are openness, playfulness and variability, assuming maximum use of the church and the adjacent cemetery, but with respect to the cultural monument, historical context and piety of the place. The urban solution is based on a new way of using the church, the cemetery area and the surrounding area. Due to the absence of barrier-free access to the building, a second entrance through the sacristy is proposed, to which a paved roundabout from the local road leads. The architectural solution is based primarily on respect for the historical monument, its regional significance and the need to preserve, refurbish or replace the most valuable elements with new ones. The preservation of the architecture of the main Gothic volume and the tower from the 18th century is very important.

CENTER OF LEISURE TIME NEW BYSTROUŠKA - BRNO
2017
REWARD
2 in 1 - Objects in one building (homogeneous, compact expression); Staging - gradual construction of buildings (separability of operations, simple construction); Inconspicuousness - mass and material lightness (transparency, subtlety); Connectivity - operational and visual connection with public space (contact with the terrain); Tops of the square - triangular territorial composition of civic amenities (CVČ + Hall, polyclinic, market place); Spirit of the place - park character of the square (grass, greenery).

MALOSTRANSKÉ SQUARE IN PRAGUE
2014
The basic idea is a new functional zoning of the square in relation to the main communication and visual axes, orientation to near and far landmarks and morphology of the terrain. Zones delimited by new characteristic outdoor furniture or greenery are; assembly (amphitheater), shopping (market), catering (restaurant), relaxation and transport. The main pedestrian corridor across the square leads in the place of the original so-called Royal Route around the Church of St. Nicholas. The side pedestrian corridor leads through the existing car park in the foyer of the former Jesuit dormitory.
Designed one level of the square, calming of traffic in the movement from the original paving blocks and without curb, relocation of traffic at rest outside the square to the courtyards, uniform paving surface in the pedestrian zone, revitalization of space with existing or new landmarks, navigation elements in the paving, new functional zoning in the form of restaurants, amphitheater, market, transport hub and relaxation will allow more user-friendly conditions and full use of the public space of the square.
PRAGUE PORT 18600
2014
Proportionally, the building is based on the dimensions of a common park bench. Its shape should evoke a prefabricated fitting, a display case, or a small sailboat characteristic of Port 18600. Functionally, the building allows comfortable seating for two people and a transparent storage space. In the case of books, the building becomes a kind of freely accessible bookcase and every visitor to the port has the opportunity not only to sit, put things away, but also to read a book, borrow, take, or bring their own in the case of the next visit. The individual objects can be arranged in regular or irregular clusters, next to each other, one behind the other, or independently and independently of each other without limiting the function.
BRIDGE OVER THE LABE IN HRADEC KRÁLOVÉ
2014
The footbridge completes the communication axis between the two banks. It connects to existing pedestrian roads and bicycle paths. It connects the surrounding streets with a raised bridgehead with gentle asphalt ramps and an arched steel frame structure. It is integrated into the area of the city promenade by its subtle construction, air volume and minimal interference with the surrounding terrain and adjacent line greenery. By optimizing the number and size of individual steel elements, it allows open views of the surroundings and at the same time does not visually divide the surroundings of the river Elbe. The aim was to maintain the most direct functional connection between the two banks, but to avoid any interference with the surrounding greenery and thus disrupt the existing tree alleys, even at the cost of an eccentric location on the axis of Collinova Street. The location of the structure allows for seamless viewing conditions at the intersections of pedestrian and bicycle traffic on both banks of the river. The clear width of the footbridge with railings is 4.5 m. Load-bearing steel the structure consists of a Vierendeel arch with a span 67.7m and a width 5.2m.

OSTRAVA ČERNÁ LOUKA
2010
The main goal was to solve the complicated traffic situation in close to the historic center and reclamation of the area. The basic outline of the design consists of a partial diversion of traffic through an underground tunnel, a new communication axis leading to the area, the abolition of a multi-purpose intersection, the thickening of existing buildings, new sets of buildings and the possibility of city expansion.
EMBASSY OF THE CZECH REPUBLIC IN WASHINGTON
2009
The three main volumes terraced the morphology of the terrain and maintains the compactness of the whole building. Architecturally and operationally, they are divided into three parts, among which are the atriums. The building is located on imaginary axes that lead to the entrances and residence of the ambassador. The main communication axis passes through the building itself, which connects the residential, official and embassy parts. The layering of functions was subject to the security aspect, the logic of operation and movement around the land.
